Today, Su Rong wore a flaming red dress which meant that the wine stains weren't noticeable, but this was the exact opposite of what her stepsister was wearing.

Su Qing was wearing a white dress, and coincidentally, most of the wine splash fell on her dress. The red stains looked glaring.

Unable to continue watching her pretentious act, Su Rong reprimanded in a harsh voice, "Stand up!"

As if she had been granted amnesty, Su Qing quickly stood up. "I'm sorry, Su Rong. I just saw you and wanted to greet you. I didn't know this would happen."

Su Qing's beauty was like a hibiscus, delicate and innocent. Her white dress gave her a pure aura. Coupled with her increasingly pale face and red eyes that had welled up in tears, she was a delicate miss that easily aroused the affection of men.

Su Ring sneered. This seemingly weak sister of hers had a bellyful of tricks. Anyone who saw this scene would think that she was a wicked sister that bullied her sister at home and outside.

Or how else could one explain this submissive behavior her stepsister just exhibited.

If this scheme succeeded, she would be labeled as an unreasonable and wicked person, and her reputation would be in tatters. How would she mingle in the high society then?

But nobody here was a fool. Who hasn't seen a few tricks and schemes?
This was minor compared to other means they frequently witnessed.

Besides, everyone knew the story of the Su family. Su Qing's mother was a personal assistant that climbed into the bed of her boss' husband, hoping she could succeed in sending the main wife packing.

Unfortunately for her, Su Rong's father was a spineless man that could only obey his wife. In the end, Su Qing was taken away from her, and she was sent to a mental institution.

After working with Mrs. Su for so many years, she still couldn't grasp her boss' character.

Now Su Qing was alone and could only rely on tricks to gain the upper hand. Even though everyone knew this, they still wanted to watch a show. No one intervened, wondering how Su Rong would react.

Suddenly, Su Rong raised her hand and gave her lovely sister a resounding slap.

Slap!

Everyone was shocked, even the person who received the slap. She had expected her sister to create a scene but not by slapping her.

But Su Rong was a domineering lady who didn't allow herself to be wronged the slightest. She didn't care about her reputation. Society would wag its tongue but not raise a single finger to help her resolve her grievances or make her life better. So why should she care what people thought or said? She lived for herself and no one else.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled mockingly. "Su Qing look around you. Look at the people you intend to rely on to bring me down. Nobody here is a fool and nobody cares about you and all they want is to see a joke. Su Qing you are a joke."

Su Qing's face was red and swollen from the slap she had just received. The red mark on her face looked harsh on her pale skin. Her pitiful look would have aroused the protective instincts of others, especially men, but no one came forward to defend or help her.

She looked around her, and all she saw were the mocking looks of others, seemingly watching a joke. Even the man who brought her to the banquet paid her no attention.

It was like she could hear their ridiculing laughter and hurtful words, and none of them was directed at her sister as she had expected.

Why? Why? She was the victim here! Why wasn't anyone on her side? But the reality was cruel.
